SDRAM Controller for FPX

Introduction

SDRAM controller is the interface between the user modules on the Field-programmable Port Extender (FPX) and the off chip SDRAM on the FPX. Multiple modules contend for the SDRAM access and the SDRAM controller arbitrates between the requests made by each module and provides access to the SDRAM. A protocol has been designed and implemented which lets the user modules make request to the SDRAM controller for SDRAM access and receive grant.
